ive only been in the away end obviously, for some reason the atmosphere was great 2 years ago. but last season was a very poor atmosphere TBH, well except for the other 3 stands which seemed a little happy for some reason

I think its rare that you get a true reflection of an atmosphere unless you are at a game, no matter ths sport

i blame all seaters, i know its for safety and such but you cant beat been crammed in with your mates bouncing around when your winning, (think back to the Boulevard days again lol)

Was one of the 'big 4' though I think.Its just a shame that most games have a crap atmosphere

That was one of the best I've experienced.


Probably Saints?

If the constant shouting of 'forward' 'get em on side' and singing to your hearts content about other clubs is what you call atmosphere then fair comment

i know you get 14,000+, well done for that but i bet you wish you got an atmosphere like you got back at the Boulevard though,
now that was an atmosphere.

Like Craven Park, it was isolated to one part of the ground rather than the total stadium like the KC.

The atmosphere in that game was fantastic (think it was in 2004?). I can remember a Wigan player going for a penalty/conversion down the east stand side and the noise was deafening. A friend who'd either watched on sky or listened to it on the radio called me after the game and commented how loud the crowd was.

There's been zilch atmosphere at caravan park in the derby games there since they came up (including the one we won!). It may feel great if you're in the east stand but the rest of the ground is carp. SKY coverage doesn't give the impression there is any anyway.

I think the atmosphere at the KC is generally OK, occassionally excellent and sometimes rubbish. Depends on the game, the opposition and how many away fans there are

Personally I couldn't give a toss what the atmosphere is like at Craven Park.
